W-type normal dispersion thulium-doped fiber-based high-energy all-fiber femtosecond laser at 1.7  µm

We propose a parabolic W-type thulium-doped fiber for the 1.7 µm high-energy femtosecond pulsed laser. Despite its attractive normal dispersion, the fiber offers high gain in 1.7 µm region thanks to its distributed short-pass filtering effect. With a proper dispersion management in an all-fiber chir...
